    Recently, in a public poll for the 'world’s most ultimate toilet' initiated by Russia's Interfax News Agency, the toilet perched on a 2,600-meter-high cliff in the Altai Mountains of Siberia claimed this 'crown'. According to the UK's Daily Mail on November 26, this precarious toilet has attracted many brave souls or those heartbroken adventurers with its thrilling location.


  Built in 1939, this dangerous toilet on the cliff was named the 'Black Heart'. In fact, this ultimate toilet is actually a remote weather station that provides weather information. Once a month, a mail carrier visits the station to collect weather data from the staff, and every autumn, a helicopter delivers food, water, and firewood for the stove. These workers truly have extraordinary courage, tiptoeing carefully while using such a nerve-wracking toilet.


  In this poll, other ultimate toilets that made the shortlist alongside the cliffside one each have their own unique features. Among them, the most expensive toilet in Hong Kong is made of 3 tons of gold. Meanwhile, the world’s scariest toilet is located atop a 15-story open elevator in Mexico, featuring a single pane of glass to prevent users from falling.
